Sunday March 25th
Winters grip finally letting go, promise of a dry sunny day, corks well and truly ready to pop so picking up where we left a mere 4 months ago at the NYM go to venue...
Scot Crags
Plenty of people out, good to see TM, MT and company keeping CB amused before AT and BP pitch up.
BP on Holly Tree Wall
Saints Wall
CB in great shape on Zeta Wall
The moves up to here are pretty thin
Until the jug arrives
The routes aren't long.
But they are packed with action.
BP needs no beta on Zeta
This angle reveals the steepness
AT spends a while getting to know the one good hold
Tooth and Nail is another steep outing.
The crux is dirty this time of year
So bridging makes a lot of sense
Gravity Wall runs out of gear here
CB about to flutter right up the hard finish.
Forced to reverse it in favour of a more direct finish
AT follows
Went much better than last year's struggle
Jack's Delight doesn't offer much joy by way of gear
The top break welcomes most wires
Phew!
Great to get to grips with some real rock after months of confinement! Bring it on!
BP did some extras solo
